Basic statistical analysis functionality and other data analysis uses such as content coding.Data entry forms - Makes use of the way Access can be used to easily create forms for more efficient data entry.Tabular data associated with spatial information - geodatabases.The SAIRD tool has some preservation metadata.No widely adopted standard, Access has its own way of storing the documentation of fields, tables, etc.Microsoft documentation indicates that using newer versions of Access (e.g., Access 2016) will result in databases that cannot be opened in earlier versions of Access.
There are subtypes of the format but they have not been described.The default format starting from Access 2007
New features, including PivotTable views, support for XML, and an updated version of SQL would result in files not compatible with Access 2000. Support was dropped in Microsoft Access 2013. Support was dropped in Microsoft Access 2010.
Access 1.0, Support was dropped in Microsoft Access 2010. Better integrations with Outlook and web services. Better compatibility with more versions of Access. Refer to those for more detailed information of the format along with a large list of additional resources. The following descriptions of the MDB and ACCDB formats are largely summarized from the Library of Congress format description entries 2 along with additional information on the differences between the formats. Starting with Access 2007, the ACCDB format was used by default. Note that although the MDB file extension was used for all those versions, the internal format changed significantly. The MDB format is the native format for MS Access 1.0 through MS Access 2003. There are variations on these 1 but they will not be discussed further. These workshops have been generously funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services # RE-85-18-0040-18.Ī Microsoft Access (MS Access) database could be in one of two main formats: MDB and ACCDB. This work was created as part of the Data Curation Network “Specialized Data Curation” Workshop #1 co-located with the Digital Library Federation (DLF) Forum 2018 in Las Vegas, Nevada on October 17-18, 2018.
